XMC FPGA Boards

FPGA Modules for XMC Systems

Acromag’s high-performance XMC FPGA modules feature a user-customizable Artix®-7, Xilinx® Kintex-7, Virtex-6, Virtex-5 or Spartan-6 FPGA. These modules allow you to develop and store your own instruction sets in the FPGA for a variety of adaptive computing applications. Select from several models with up to 410K logic cells optimized for logic, DSP, or PowerPC. The DDR3 SDRAM and a PCI Express interface rapidly move data.

Although there is no limit to the uses for Acromag’s XMC form factor FPGA I/O boards, several applications are ideal for this new technology. Common uses include sonar, radar, hardware simulation, automated test equipment, protocol conversion, in-circuit diagnostics, military servers, telecommunication, and digital signal processing. Typical applications for conduction-cooled models include manned and unmanned vehicles, battleground SIGINT and communications systems, deployment on tanks, or any system where ambient or forced air can’t provide adequate cooling.

An FPGA engineering design kit and software utilities with examples simplify your programming and get you started quickly. A JTAG interface enables on-board VHDL simulation.

Artix-7 Series

XMC Modules enhanced with Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA

These XMC Artix-7 FPGA feature 200K logic cells and DDR3 memory for increased DSP algorithm performance. Lower level applications will benefit from the Artix®-7 FPGA with either plug-in I/O or conduction cooled versions available for a lower cost solution. These FPGA modules feature a standard protocol running on a well-defined medium such as Gigabit or XAUI Ethernet, Serial RapidI/O, or Aurora which allows IP cores to be developed that can be easily supported for the long term.

These XMC Kintex-7 FPGA with 325K or 410k logic cells and feature DDR3 memory for increased DSP algorithm performance. These boards excel with applications that require both high-bandwidth processing in combination with high-speed serial interfaces. These FPGA modules feature a standard protocol running on a well-defined medium such as Gigabit or XAUI Ethernet, Serial RapidI/O, or Aurora which allows IP cores to be developed that can be easily supported for the long term.
